Welcome to Our Shark Tank

March 21, 2019

This message goes out to all the would-be Elons, Kylies and Zucks of the world—if you have the seed of a great entrepreneurial idea, now is the time to plant that sucker and watch it grow. There’s never been a better time to take a chance on a new concept and develop your own potentially earth-shaking enterprise. It’s a wide blue ocean out there, and those who dare to venture far away from proverbial safe shores can find a world of success.

At Regis University, we’re in the business of helping our students launch their own business. The Anderson College of Business is home to the Innovation Center, established in 2015 and designed to bring together students, faculty, alumni and the community to design solutions for an ever-changing world. We embrace and cultivate creativity, and are dedicated to giving our students the opportunity to see their dreams come to fruition.

This isn’t just idle talk; we walk the walk. Our distinctly Jesuit vision guides us to help business leaders become stewards of society with the goal of improving the quality of life on Earth. We think St. Ignatius, founder of the Jesuits, said it best: “Go and set the world on fire.”

To see firsthand how Regis supports student entrepreneurs, we invite you to join us for the Innovation Challenge Finals. Watch the top 10 finalist teams from 2018 pitch their ideas and compete to win up to $17,000 and a co-working space for their business. Finalists this year include concepts around augmented reality (AR) apps, Red Rocks transportation solutions, outdoor adventure gear and more. Audience participants play a crucial role in voting for the winners—register to attend and come be a part of their story!
